Thanks man! Yeah I didn't want to debadge it completely :) As you said it's the only thing that makes it different from standard!

If you're still looking for a more "white look" for your headlights then get some MTEC super white bulbs and some LED sidelights - looks a treat on mine 8)

Fitted my philips silver vision bulbs yesterday. Subtle, but makes a big difference when looking at the indicators 8)

Also, I am looking for a DAB aerial to use with my RCD510 that doesn't look too bad without ripping the headlining out! I may go for this one:

Does anybody have any other suggestions :)?

Waiting for the the weather to get warmer so I can paint the front callipers red, and the rear drums black! Will make a big difference to the appearance 8)

NO DON'T DO IT!! Why ruin such a classy car painting the calipers red? :roll: the DAB aerial looks promising, might treat myself to the RCD510 DAB now so I can fit that and a reverse camera, I really liked it in the Golf courtesy car I had recently. :)
